Fund highlights
* "Periods of fear and uncertainty have often proved the best time to
invest. . . . Since World War II, no bear market has lasted longer than
two years, and nothing now suggests anything that would break the mold and
subject us to a catastrophe the likes of which we haven't seen in this
country since the 1930s."
-- SmartMoney, November 1998
* "We believe Putnam Diversified Income Trust's strategy of investing in
three different fixed-income sectors is a sound one for all market
environments. Over the past decade, it certainly has stood the test of
time, providing investors with an average annual return in excess of 8%
for class A shares at NAV since its inception.* While periods of
volatility are always disconcerting, we are confident that the fund's
global flexibility and Putnam's intensive credit research will enable the
management team to meet any challenge head on."

Dear Shareholder:
By playing to the strengths and de-emphasizing the vulnerabilities of
Putnam Diversified Income Trust's multisector portfolio, the fund's
managers were able to moderate the effects of a volatile market climate
during the period. Thus fiscal 1998 results, while not positive, were
showing neither the sharp declines nor the solid gains of many
single-sector portfolios in the prevailing environment.
Shortly after the close of the fiscal year, David L. Waldman and Jeffrey
A. Kaufman were appointed to your fund's management team. David joined
Putnam in 1997 following positions with Lazard Freres Asset Management and
Goldman Sachs Asset Management. He has 10 years of investment experience.
Jeffrey joined Putnam in 1998. He was formerly with MFS Investment
Management and Salomon Brothers and has 8 years of investment experience.
Respectfully yours,
/S/GEORGE PUTNAM

Report from the Fund Managers
Jennifer E. Leichter, lead manager
Michael Martino
D. William Kohli
Throughout the 12 months ended September 30, 1998, resurgent financial and
political instability in many of the world's developing countries had a
dramatic effect on securities markets around the globe. As Asia's woes
intensified and Russia's currency crisis hit the boiling point, each of
Putnam Diversified Income Trust's three investment sectors -- U.S. taxable
investment grade, foreign, and high yield -- was affected in some manner.
As a result, while your fund has had seven years of solid performance, we
closed fiscal 1998 in slightly negative territory, posting a total return
of -1.67% for class A shares at net asset value and -6.31% at public
offering price. For complete performance information, please refer to the
summary that begins on page 9.
* SUCCESSFUL STRATEGY SOMEWHAT DAMPENED BY GLOBAL FLIGHT TO QUALITY
Our strategy throughout the year was to hold firm in our emphasis on the
so-called spread sectors -- those areas of the fixed-income market in
which the most attractive yield resides, such as high-yield bonds,
high-grade corporate issues, mortgage-backed securities, and a little bit
of emerging-markets debt. Our reasoning behind this approach involves a
time-tested belief that by overweighting the spread sectors in combination
with some exposure to U.S. government securities, your fund's portfolio
would offer the potential to outperform the broad fixed-income market in
the long term.
While this approach has greatly benefited your fund since its inception, a
dramatic about-face occurred in the final months of the period. The fund's
U.S. Treasury securities and mortgage-backed issues became the portfolio's
dominant performers as a result of a global flight to quality, while the
high-yield and investment-grade corporate positions suffered a severe
setback. Our focus on the core bond markets of Europe stood the fund in
good stead and helped provide some much-needed ballast in the wake of
capsizing emerging-markets debt.
* HIGH-YIELD BONDS BACKTRACK TO 1991 LEVELS
Seven years of price gains in the high-yield market were effectively
eradicated this past summer for reasons that had more to do with global
investor sentiment than with the business and economic fundamentals in the
United States. Signs of recession overseas, an unexpectedly weak U.S. jobs
report, lower-than-expected corporate earnings forecasts, Russia's
financial collapse, and broad-based selling of high-yield debt by highly
leveraged, distressed hedge funds to meet margin calls created a
sky-is-falling atmosphere. In response, investors came stampeding out of
just about any fixed-income security that involved credit risk. The spread
between high-yield bonds and Treasury securities (the difference in yield
between bonds with similar maturities) had widened by nearly 7% at
period's end.
As disturbing as the market rout has been, we are holding firm in the
fund's high-yield positioning for sound, fundamental reasons. The forces
that pushed Treasury bonds, stocks, and high-yield bonds higher for most
of the period, such as solid economic growth, healthy corporate
profitability, subdued inflation, and low interest rates, remain in place
and continue to provide ideal conditions for high-yield investing. Indeed,
the high-yield bond sector was the top-performing global fixed-income
sector through June. Merger and acquisition activity is still brisk,
defaults remain low, and the fiscal health of corporate America and the
U.S. government is far better than it has been in years.

Footnote reads:
*Based on net assets as of 9/30/98. Holdings will vary over time.
Bonds in the telecommunications, broadcasting, cable, and finance
industries remain our primary focus. The ongoing consolidation,
deregulation, and dynamic long-term growth potential of these industries
bode well for companies that are focused and driven. Nextel Communications
and WinStar remain favored holdings. While the securities discussed in
this report were viewed favorably at the end of the period, all holdings
are subject to review in accordance with the fund's investment strategy
and may vary in the future.
* U.S. TREASURY BONDS WERE WORLD'S DARLINGS
Since Asia's troubles first garnered the attention of investors worldwide
last October, the U.S. Treasury market has experienced a most impressive
and historic rally. Investors flocked to the high credit quality of U.S.
Treasury bonds throughout the fiscal period. This caused the yield on the
bellwether 30-year Treasury bond -- which moves in the opposite direction
from its price -- to ratchet steadily down to below 5%, a level not seen
in its 21-year history. The fund's exposure to the Treasury market
significantly helped performance, buoying its share price as other sectors
came under considerable pressure.
Higher-yielding mortgage-backed securities, however, were our main focus
in the U.S. government arena. While at times this prohibited the fund from
participating fully in the Treasury market rally, our focus on securities
with lower prepayment sensitivity, such as adjustable-rate, lower-coupon,
and 15-year maturity mortgage-backed securities, did benefit the fund.
Classified as intermediate-term maturities, the mortgage-backed issues we
selected provided the portfolio with what we believed to be the most
optimum duration exposure as the yield curve flattened through June and
then steepened near period's end. (Duration is a measure of sensitivity to
interest-rate changes.)

* FOREIGN FOCUS REMAINED CORE EUROPE
Developed-country bonds in Europe benefited from the global flight to
quality, posting solid returns in local currency terms over the period. We
focused on core European markets, such as Germany, France, and Great
Britain, at the expense of the higher-yielding peripheral markets, such as
Spain, Italy, and Sweden, which performed better until recently. As the
dollar weakened against most other major currencies this past summer, we
elected to avoid hedging currencies back to the dollar as best we could.
This strategy served to enhance the local foreign bond returns when
translated back to dollars. The forthcoming unification of monetary policy
and interest rates across 11 European countries -- and everything else
that Europe's Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) promises -- convinced us
to stay the course with our core European holdings.
The fund's exposure to emerging markets, although limited, hindered
returns as the crisis in Asia worsened and Russia's financial system
collapsed. We continue to avoid Japanese government bonds, anticipating
that the sad state of economic affairs in that country may well continue
for some time.
* MARKET OVERREACTION MAY HERALD MORE POSITIVE ENVIRONMENT
At the time of this writing, a good portion of the broad fixed-income
market is being priced as if the domestic and global economic situation is
in a dire state of affairs. We do not hold that belief. In our opinion,
fundamental forces at work all over the globe -- EMU, positive budget
developments in the United States and many other developed nations, low
inflation, stable-to-declining interest rates, and economic recovery
and/or continued growth -- are providing a positive backdrop for
fixed-income investing worldwide.
Having said that, however, we are not so naive as to suggest that the
current period of volatility is drawing to a close. Indeed, it may well
continue in the near term. But with volatility comes the opportunity to
add selectively -- at highly attractive prices -- to well-researched
positions that stand to benefit from a change in market sentiment. We look
forward to the challenges that may lie ahead, confident that your fund's
multisector strategy will again prove its potential over the long run.
The views expressed here are exclusively those of Putnam Management. They
are not meant as investment advice. Although the described holdings were
viewed favorably as of 9/30/98, there is no guarantee the fund will
continue to hold these securities in the future. The lower credit ratings
of high-yield corporate bonds reflect a greater possibility that adverse
changes in the economy or their issuers may affect their ability to pay
principal and interest on the bonds. Investments in non-U.S. securities
may be subject to certain risks such as currency fluctuations, economic
instability, and political developments. Although the U.S. government
guarantees the timely payment of principal and interest on some of the
underlying securities, the value of the fund shares is not guaranteed and
will fluctuate.

Past performance is no assurance of future results. Returns for class A
and class M shares reflect the current maximum initial sales charges of
4.75% and 3.25%, respectively. Class B share returns for the 1-, 5-, and
10-year (where available) and life-of-fund periods reflect the applicable
contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC), which is 5% in the first year,
declines to 1% in the sixth year, and is eliminated thereafter. Returns
shown for class B and class M shares for periods prior to their inception
are derived from the historical performance of class A shares, adjusted to
reflect both the initial sales charge or CDSC, if any, currently
applicable to each class and in the case of class B and class M shares,
the higher operating expenses applicable to such shares. All returns
assume reinvestment of distributions at NAV. Investment return and
principal value will fluctuate so that an investor's shares when redeemed
may be worth more or less than their original cost.
This performance information does not reflect any market volatility that
may have occurred since the date of the information. As a result, more
recent returns may be more or less than those shown.

TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
Total return shows how the value of the fund's shares changed over time,
assuming you held the shares through the entire period and reinvested all
distributions in the fund.
Class A shares are generally subject to an initial sales charge.
Class B shares may be subject to a sales charge upon redemption.
Class M shares have a lower initial sales charge and a higher 12b-1 fee
than class A shares and no sales charge on redemption.
Net asset value (NAV) is the value of all your fund's assets, minus any
liabilities, divided by the number of outstanding shares, not including
any initial or contingent deferred sales charge.
Public offering price (POP) is the price of a mutual fund share plus the
maximum sales charge levied at the time of purchase. POP performance
figures shown here assume the maximum 4.75% sales charge for class A
shares and 3.25% for class M shares.
Contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) is a charge applied at the time of
the redemption of class B shares and assumes redemption at the end of the
period. Your fund's CDSC declines from a 5% maximum during the first year
to 1% during the sixth year. After the sixth year, the CDSC no longer
applies.

Report of independent accountants
For the fiscal year ended September 30, 1998
To the Trustees and Shareholders of
Putnam Diversified Income Trust
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities,
including the portfolio of investments owned, and the related statements
of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Putnam
Diversified Income Trust (the "fund") at September 30, 1998, and the
results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial
highlights for the periods indicated, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. These financial statements and financial
highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the fund's management; our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted
our audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial

significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which
included confirmation of investments owned at September 30, 1998, by

Notes to financial statements
September 30, 1998
Note 1
Significant accounting policies
Putnam Diversified Income Trust (the "fund") is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end
management investment company. The fund seeks high current income
consistent with preservation of capital by allocating its investments
among the U.S. government sector, high yield sector and international
sector of the fixed-income securities market.
The fund offers class A, class B, class M and class Y shares. Class A
shares are sold with a maximum front-end sales charge of 4.75%. Class B
shares, which convert to class A shares after approximately eight years,
do not pay a front-end sales charge but pay a higher ongoing distribution
fee than class A shares, and are subject to a contingent deferred sales
charge, if those shares are redeemed within six years of purchase. Class M
shares are sold with a maximum front end sales charge of 3.25% and pay an
ongoing distribution fee that is higher than class A shares but lower than
class B shares. Class Y shares, which are sold at net asset value, are
generally subject to the same expenses as class A, class B, and class M
shares, but do not bear a distribution fee. Class Y shares are sold to
defined contribution plans that invest at least $250 million in a
combination of Putnam Funds and other accounts managed by affiliates of
Putnam Investment Management, Inc. ("Putnam Management"), the fund's
Manager, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Putnam Investments, Inc.
Expenses of the fund are borne pro-rata by the holders of each class of
shares, except that each class bears expenses unique to that class
(including the distribution fees applicable to such class). Each class
votes as a class only with respect to its own distribution plan or other
matters on which a class vote is required by law or determined by the
Trustees. Shares of each class would receive their pro-rata share of the
net assets of the fund, if that fund were liquidated. In addition, the
Trustees declare separate dividends on each class of shares.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The
preparation of financial statements is in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles and requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
A) Security valuation Investments for which market quotations are readily
available are stated at market value, which is determined using the last
reported sale price, or, if no sales are reported -- as in the case of
some securities traded over-the-counter -- the last reported bid price.
Securities quoted in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars
at the current exchange rate. Market quotations are not considered to be
readily available for long term corporate bonds and notes; such
investments are stated at fair market value on the basis of valuations
furnished by a pricing service, approved by the Trustees, or dealers,
which determine valuations for normal, institutional-size trading units of
such securities using methods based on market translations for comparable
securities and variable relationships between securities that are
generally recognized by institutional traders. Short-term investments
having remaining maturities of 60 days or less are stated at amortized
cost, which approximates market value, and other investments including
restricted securities are stated at fair market value following procedures
approved by the Trustees.
B) Joint trading account Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the fund may transfer uninvested cash
balances into a joint trading account along with the cash of other
registered investment companies and certain other accounts managed by
Putnam Management. These balances may be invested in one or more
repurchase agreements and/or short-term money market instruments.
C) Repurchase agreements The fund, or any joint trading account, through
its custodian, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the market
value of which at the time of purchase is required to be in an amount at
least equal to the resale price, including accrued interest. Collateral
for certain tri-party repurchase agreements is held at the counterparty's
custodian in a segregated account for the benefit of the fund and the
counterparty. Putnam Management is responsible for determining that the
value of these underlying securities is at all times at least equal to the
resale price, including accrued interest.
D) Security transactions and related investment income Security
transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or
sell is executed). Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date except that certain
dividends from foreign securities are recorded as soon as the fund is
informed of the ex-dividend date. Discounts on zero coupon bonds, original
issue discount bonds, stepped-coupon bonds and payment in kind bonds are
accreted according to the yield-to-maturity basis. Securities purchased or
sold on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis may be settled a month or
more after the trade date; interest income is accrued based on the terms
of the security. Losses may arise due to changes in the market value of
the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under
the contract.
E) Foreign currency translation The accounting records of the fund are
maintained in U.S. dollars. The market value of foreign securities,
currency holdings, and other assets and liabilities are recorded in the
books and records of the fund after translation to U.S. dollars based on
the exchange rates on that day. The cost of each security is determined
using historical exchange rates. Income and withholding taxes are
translated at prevailing exchange rates when accrued or incurred. The fund
does not isolate that portion of realized or unrealized gains or losses
resulting from changes in the foreign exchange rate on investments from
fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of the securities.
Such gains and losses are included with the net realized and unrealized
gain or loss on investments. Net realized gains and losses on foreign
currency transactions represent net realized exchange gains or losses on
closed forward currency contracts, disposition of foreign currencies and
the difference between the amount of investment income and foreign
withholding taxes recorded on the fund's books and the U.S. dollar
equivalent amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized appreciation
and depreciation of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies arise
from changes in the value of open forward currency contracts and assets
and liabilities other than investments at the period end, resulting from
changes in the exchange rate.
F) Forward currency contracts The fund may engage in forward currency
contracts, which are agreements between two parties to buy and sell
currencies at a set price on a future date, to protect against a decline
in value relative to the U.S. dollar of the currencies in which its
portfolio securities are denominated or quoted (or an increase in the
value of a currency in which securities a fund intends to buy are
denominated, when a fund holds cash reserves and short-term investments).
The U.S. dollar value of forward currency contracts is determined using
current forward currency exchange rates supplied by a quotation service.
The market value of the contract will fluctuate with changes in currency
exchange rates. The contract is "marked to market" daily and the change in
market value is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contract
is closed, the fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the
difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and
the value at the time it was closed. The fund could be exposed to risk if
the value of the currency changes unfavorably, if the counterparties to
the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts or if the
fund is unable to enter into a closing position.
G) Futures and options contracts The fund may use futures and options
contracts to hedge against changes in the values of securities the fund
owns or expects to purchase. The fund may also write options on securities
it owns or in which it may invest to increase its current returns.
The potential risk to the fund is that the change in value of futures and
options contracts may not correspond to the change in value of the hedged
instruments. In addition, losses may arise from changes in the value of
the underlying instruments, if there is an illiquid secondary market for
the contracts, or if the counterparty to the contract is unable to
perform. When the contract is closed, the fund records a realized gain or
loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time
it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Realized gains and
losses on purchased options are included in realized gains and losses on
investment securities.
Futures contracts are valued at the quoted daily settlement prices
established by the exchange on which they trade. Exchange traded options
are valued at the last sale price, or if no sales are reported, the last
bid price for purchased options and the last ask price for written
options. Options traded over-the-counter are valued using prices supplied
by dealers.
H) TBA purchase commitments The fund may enter into "TBA" (to be
announced) purchase commitments to purchase securities for a fixed unit
price at a future date beyond customary settlement time. Although the unit
price has been established, the principal value has not been finalized.
However, the amount of the commitments will not fluctuate more than 1.0%
from the principal amount. The fund holds, and maintains until settlement
date, cash or high-grade debt obligations in an amount sufficient to meet
the purchase price, or the fund may enter into offsetting contracts for
the forward sale of other securities it owns. Income on the securities
will not be earned until settlement date. TBA purchase commitments may be
considered securities in themselves, and involve a risk of loss if the
value of the security to be purchased declines prior to the settlement
date, which risk is in addition to the risk of decline in the value of the
fund's other assets. Unsettled TBA purchase commitments are valued at the
current market value of the underlying securities, according to the
procedures described under "Security valuation" above.
Although the fund will generally enter into TBA purchase commitments with
the intention of acquiring securities for their portfolio or for delivery
pursuant to options contracts it has entered into, the fund may dispose of
a commitment prior to settlement if Putnam Management deems it appropriate
to do so.
I) TBA sale commitments The fund may enter into TBA sale commitments to
hedge its portfolio positions or to sell mortgage-backed securities it
owns under delayed delivery arrangements. Proceeds of TBA sale commitments
are not received until the contractual settlement date. During the time a
TBA sale commitment is outstanding, equivalent deliverable securities, or
an offsetting TBA purchase commitment deliverable on or before the sale
commitment date, are held as "cover" for the transaction.
Unsettled TBA sale commitments are valued at the current market value of
the underlying securities, generally according to the procedures described
under "Security valuation" above. The contract is "marked-to-market" daily
and the change in market value is recorded by the fund as an unrealized
gain or loss. If the TBA sale commitment is closed through the acquisition
of an offsetting purchase commitment, the fund realizes a gain or loss. If
the fund delivers securities under the commitment, the fund realizes a
gain or a loss from the sale of the securities based upon the unit price
established at the date the commitment was entered into.
J) Line of credit The fund has entered into a committed line of credit
with certain banks. This line of credit agreement includes restrictions
that the fund maintain an asset coverage ratio of at least 300% and
borrowings must not exceed prospectus limitations. For the year ended
September 30, 1998, the fund had no borrowings against the line of credit.
K) Federal taxes It is the policy of the fund to distribute all of its
taxable income within the prescribed time and otherwise comply with the
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
companies. It is also the intention of the fund to distribute an amount
sufficient to avoid imposition of any excise tax under Section 4982 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Therefore, no provision has
been made for federal taxes on income, capital gains or unrealized
appreciation on securities held nor for excise tax on income and capital
gains. At September 30, 1998, the fund had a capital loss carryover of
approximately $22,379,000 available to offset future net capital gain, if
any, which will expire on September 30, 2006.
L) Distributions to shareholders Distributions to shareholders are
recorded by the fund on the ex-dividend date. At certain times, the fund
may pay distributions at a level rate even though, as a result of market
conditions or investment decisions, the fund may not achieve projected
investment results for a given period. The amount and character of income
and gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with income tax
regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences include temporary and permanent differences
of losses on wash sale transactions, foreign currency gains and losses,
post-October loss deferrals, defaulted bond interest, paydown gains and
losses on mortgage-backed securities, market discount, and interest on
payment-in-kind securities. Reclassifications are made to the fund's
capital accounts to reflect income and gains available for distribution
(or available capital loss carryovers) under income tax regulations. For
the year ended September 30, 1998, the fund reclassified $88,725,529 to
decrease undistributed net investment income and $2,899,151 to increase
paid-in-capital, with a decrease to accumulated net realized loss on
investments of $85,826,378. The calculation of net investment income per
share in the financial highlights table excludes these adjustments.
Note 2
Management fee, administrative
services and other transactions
Compensation of Putnam Management, for management and investment advisory
services is paid quarterly based on the average net assets of the fund.
Such fee is based on the following annual rates: 0.70% of the first $500
million of net assets, 0.60% of the next $500 million, 0.55% of the next
$500 million, 0.50% the next $5 billion, 0.475% of the next $5 billion,
0.455% of the next $5 billion, 0.44% of the next $5 billion and 0.43%
thereafter.
The fund reimburses Putnam Management an allocated amount for the
compensation and related expenses of certain officers of the fund and
their staff who provide administrative services to the fund. The aggregate
amount of all such reimbursements is determined annually by the Trustees.
Custodial functions for the fund's assets are provided by Putnam Fiduciary
Trust Company (PFTC), a subsidiary of Putnam Investments, Inc. Investor
servicing agent functions are provided by Putnam Investor Services, a
division of PFTC.
For the year ended September 30, 1998, fund expenses were reduced by
$1,714,087 under expense offset arrangements with PFTC. Investor servicing
and custodian fees reported in the Statement of operations exclude these
credits. The fund could have invested a portion of the assets utilized in
connection with the expense offset arrangements in an income producing
asset if it had not entered into such arrangements.
Each Trustee of the fund receives an annual Trustee fee, of which $3,550
has been allocated to the fund, and an additional fee for each Trustee's
meeting attended. Trustees who are not interested persons of Putnam
Management and who serve on committees of the Trustees receive additional
fees for attendance at certain committee meetings.
The fund has adopted a Trustee Fee Deferral Plan (the "Deferral Plan")
which allows the Trustees to defer the receipt of all or a portion of
Trustees Fees payable on or after July 1, 1995. The deferred fees remain
in the fund and are invested in certain Putnam funds until distribution in
accordance with the Deferral Plan.
The fund has adopted an unfunded noncontributory defined benefit pension
plan (the "Pension Plan") covering all Trustees of the fund who have
served as Trustee for at least five years. Benefits under the Pension Plan
are equal to 50% of the Trustee's average total retainer and meeting fees
for the three years preceding retirement. Pension expense for the fund is
included in Compensation of Trustees in the Statement of operations.
Accrued pension liability is included in Payable for compensation of
Trustees in the Statement of assets and liabilities.
The fund has adopted distribution plans (the "Plans") with respect to its
class A, class B and class M shares pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the
Investment Company Act of 1940. The purpose of the Plans is to compensate
Putnam Mutual Funds Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Putnam Investments
Inc., for services provided and expenses incurred by it in distributing
shares of the fund. The Plans provide for payments by the fund to Putnam
Mutual Funds Corp. at an annual rate up to 0.35%, 1.00% and 1.00% of the
average net assets attributable to class A, class B and class M shares
respectively. The Trustees have approved payment by the fund to an annual
rate of 0.25%, 1.00% and 0.50% of the average net assets attributable to
class A, class B and class M shares, respectively.
For the year ended September 30, 1998, Putnam Mutual Funds Corp., acting
as underwriter received net commissions of $688,746 and $2,577,007 from
the sale of class A and class M shares, respectively and $4,361,652 in
contingent deferred sales charges from redemptions of class B shares. A
deferred sales charge of up to 1% is assessed on certain redemptions of
class A shares. For the year ended September 30, 1998, Putnam Mutual Funds
Corp., acting as underwriter received $64,104 on class A redemptions.
Note 3
Purchases and sales of securities
During the year ended September 30, 1998, purchases and sales of
investment securities other than U.S. government obligations and
short-term investments aggregated $6,762,098,609 and $5,649,902,318,
respectively. Purchases and sales of U.S. government obligations
aggregated $3,182,609,994 and $4,008,566,780, respectively. In determining
the net gain or loss on securities sold, the cost of securities has been
determined on the identified cost basis.
